"The Judge: 'They would not be sufficient to lead to a verdict. The doubts must be legal doubts. It is not for me to influence you one way or another. I have put the facts of the case before you, and it is upon those facts you must decide and pronounce your verdict.'
"The Foreman (after a brief consultation with his brother jurymen): 'Our verdict, my Lord, is Not guilty.'
"The Judge: 'Upon what grounds have you arrived at your verdict?'
"The Foreman: 'Upon the grounds of moral conviction, my Lord.'
"The Judge: 'It is my duty to tell you again that those grounds are insufficient. Sentiment has nothing whatever to do with a criminal case. I must request you to retire and reconsider your verdict.'
"The Foreman: 'With all respect, my Lord, it is useless. We have resolved to return no other verdict than the one we have given, and upon the grounds I have stated.'
"Several of the jury gave audible assent to their foreman's words.
"The Judge: 'I cannot receive your verdict, accompanied by your statement. You will retire and give the matter further consideration.'
"The Foreman: 'If we are locked up all night, my Lord, we shall return no other verdict.'
"The Judge: 'I do not wish to be harsh or oppressive. Equally with yourselves I have a duty to perform. If you do not rightly comprehend any part of the evidence, say so, and I will explain it to you.'
